Product Description
Fabulous clay shaping blade!
This very thin and extremely sharp blade is used to cut straight shapes in your clay. I recommend you set a strip of masking tape or similar on the blunt side to stop you picking it up the wrong side up.
Wipe clean after use. Don't clean with water as it is prone to rusting, your blade will love you if you wipe it clean after each use and smooth in a little mineral oil to coat the surface every now and then.
We also have a great set of tissue blades, the Super Slicer set, which comes with a selection of different types of blades with a clever handle - read more about it here.
Approximately 155mm long and 18mm wide.
*Tissue blades are made out of carbon steel, which is heat treated. Oil tarnish marks are part of the manufacturing process. This does not effect the quality or performance.*

Very useful
A very useful blade that I didn't know I needed. Nice & sharp & easy to use on clay. I also followed Metal Clay's tip about putting a band of tape on the edge that you want to hold, so you don't accidentally hold it by the sharp side. Very useful tip as I'm sure I would have cut myself by now otherwise.

sharp little blade does good
Love this little tissue blade. It makes cutting excess clay easy when it comes to those straight lines! I haven't lost any digits but I am aware how sharp it is - honestly just extremely minor cuts lol

Tissue blade
I was thrilled to find this tissue blade for sale and one called a super sharp one at that. I eagerly received it, but kept it packaged as I was heading away for a weekend tutorial. Imagine both my disappointment and ire to discover it wasn't even capable of cutting through Kato Polymer Clay. Very disappointed in this one product. I also bought the kidney shaped blade, but have not used yet, so will review when I have. I enjoy using your store, and although this will not put me off, it has somewhat unsettled me. **RESPONSE FROM METAL CLAY** Thank you for your feedback Anita and we're sorry to hear you're disappointed with this product. We use the tissue blades often in our studio and classes and have never experienced this problem. It is sometimes difficult to tell the difference between the super sharp side and the blunt side so we recommend setting a strip of masking tape or similar on the blunt side to stop you picking it up the wrong side up. Please email us at support@metalclay.co.uk and hopefully we can help you sort out a solution to the problem.

Tissue blades
I bought these tissue blades from metal clay ltd for my polymer clay and not only did they arrive quickly they are very sharp and at a great price and perfect for the cutting and slicing of my polymer clay projects. I will certainly be getting all my items for my polymer clay hobby from metal clay Ltd.

Good to use - doesn't drag the clay

It cuts
It cuts, I keep mine oiled with olive oil to avoid rust, and its a good idea to put some electrical tape or something on the blunt side so you know which side to grab, other than that it cuts... :)

Tissue Blades
Blades are nice and sharp although there is some discolouration on some of them.

Fabulous!
Worth every penny, but put some masking tape or similar on the blunt side else you might end up with scrubbed fingers when you grab it quick! I keep mine in a (ex-geometry set) tin with paper towel and use a bit of oil which the towels absorb.
